What owners wrote
Automobile caught on fire and burned. Was told by the dealer that transmission fuel leaked out and caused the fire.
The dealer had replaced two automatic transmissions in the last two years. The vehicle was a lease and had only one year remaining and was unable to be driven. The vehicle needed a transmission and brakes. The engine light had come on, the transmission lines leaked, and when the brakes were applied they were noisy. *scc
